Fine Art Shipping for Museums & Galleries

We Ship Some of the Most Valued Artwork

Shipping expensive art both internationally and domestically requires proper handling and packaging to ensure the artwork arrives in the same condition as it left. It is important to work with a logistics provider that has experience in handling art and can provide the necessary climate-controlled transportation, insurance and customs clearance.

Mercury helps museums and galleries with shipping high-value fine art domestically and internationally. We have shipped everything from Norman Rockwell paintings sent to France for the Caen Memorial for the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings to Rembrandt paintings and Galileo’s original telescope.
